Update: show’s over – thanks for watching! Come check out White Rood Radio as it happens. We’re doing two shows tonight that are being broadcast live courtesy of ustream.tv starting at 10pm EST (GMT-5/9pm CST/8 MST/7 PST). And not only can you see us do the show, but you can ask questions in the comment section of this post. During our second show (generally in the 2nd hour of recording) we’ll be reading those questions and answering them live.
To watch, all you have to do is click the link below to open a dedicated window with all three video feeds. Then just click play on each and that’s it!

Is this where we’re going to make snyde comments during the show?
Yes. And they will be judged on snyde-ness
On a scale of 1-10?

Right now is the closest and best yet.
I just had a bit of Todd sounding good.

…all of you were coming through, but not cool if you don’t like it.

Why don’t we make this the Gabe show
Gabeavison!!!
maybe it only works with comcast
SOUND RETREAT!
No retreat yet, come on lads make it work
I hear Gabe. I see Gabe & Todd. It looks like it could be good, if only it worked for you all 🙂
Don’t give up on it guys, typical for the first few times though for there to be some issues. Just remember the first few White Roof radio shows.
Will be sure that you guys will get it worked out and you will have excellent new feature.
Check again, Todd, but low volume
got todd’s checks low
Todd we can hear you just turn it up
Easy on the mic Gabe, when you get too close it gets loud and distorted.
i passed a kidny stone 4mm so u got off easy
getting todds oks, then he said hit record, and dropped out
Gabe you are talking over Todd’s tests. Todd your low but clear, (somewhat intermittant)
I hear todd in background
volume up todd
can hear todd
but no db
We all hear Todd…He is talking to someone else
Gabe what kind of Mic is that? Tell us about your hardware software setup for podcasting.
Todd’s really low.
todd volume to low
The live comments would be a bit easier if we did an IRC channel rather than the web page — no need to reload.
better
todd suddenly strong
check
So, the first question of the night. How do you like ustreams ease of use? 😉
chek heck
Yeah todd, hear you and gabe loud and clear – little crunchy on todd

Todd audio is great

Can hear Todd now
Todd – yes, much better
so anyoen of you comming out to the 511 show in jacksonville
gabe Can you give a short tutolial on what is needed on the order to have Bluetooth completely integrated? My local MA does not seem to have a complete knowledge on the topic. This inclueds the arm rest adapter. thanks ajm
2 conversations at once, it’s ADD all over again, lol.
No luck on DB right now
db video still on intermission
Todds ustream is great right now. No DB on ustream. Todds audio is hot.
And we’re all up!
Great all across the board on this side
the voice of db from BEYOND – YOND – YOND!!!
Do it now… it’s all working stop touching things.
sweet it works
db video!! and sound
it’s all good.
sweet! 3 for 3
all sounds good now
scratchy gabe
Gabe was better audio on live, before he adjusted the level up.
all good
Todd needs to turn the “Bitcrusher” audio patch off.
i am falling assleep
Better now slightly lower gabe
getting a little DB now finally
Looking and sounding good.
Watch the language dude! There’s a dog in the room! LOL!
db can use whatever language he wants… as long as the hat’s on backwards, lol.
I just don’t like the BMW sat nav
Any comments on the spy photos from carconnection.com?
what do u think of the blue tu rok fos 31band eq
you sound good on this end gabe
I’ve been watching this for three minutes now and not once has anyone busted a freestyle out. I want a refund.
Away from the mic is better!
supercharger! Yes!
If you look at the R57 spy shoots, It also has the open hood scoop (hopefully functional)…
Now Todd is distorting!
It must be a Mid facelift…
LOL DB looks like a defeated ma….LOL cheer up
You all sound fine to me…however Gabe is pretty loud…when you tell him you cannot hear him.
You guys sound ok on the video
Can we get prints of the poster?
we hear you all find
you all sound fine to me
give some love to the r50’s
That’s a pricy poster
Everything sounds good on my side guys, all three decent video and audio.
Gabe, is that a MINI Motion watch?
Here is a question:
I’m hearing stories about reflashing the R56 memory taking like 6-8 hours online. What is with that? Why could it possibly take so long to upload the system?
i dont mind the sound, but i am not a perfectionist
AWD….what do you know about it’s possible implementation in the MCS…?
DB fudged with it again and he’s gone….
$380! That’s crazy. And no aftermarket choices on the R56 yet either 🙁
The sound thru ustream sounds good – do you have the ability to record the sound output (on another computer maybe)? I’ve recorded live web conf’s this way before and it works well.
the show must go on!!
I could record the sound stream… :O
Just do the show! Who cares if you can record it!!
Todd, can’t you “fall back” to the great portable recorder you used at MTTS?
hey you guys going to MitM?
Hey Todd, can you save a poster for me. I can’t make it to Mini united but you should sell it on motoring file
ECHO….
Echo echo echo echo
Echo
big gabe echo
lots of echo echo echo
Echo through Todd now.
Tell him not to fudge with it if he gets back on
Gabe is echoing something awful!
(we’re hearing Gabe twice; maybe I should turn Gabes sound off and hear it through Todd?)
can hear db.. no visual
turn off gabe’s audio and listen through todd only.
there’s no video for db
Sweet. It works.
Magnifico!
Yes Todd – it’s working fine with your sound
Insane money? 😉
Guys on the spy shots, looks like a aerokit, could be the replacment for the but ugly first attempt. What do you guys think.
Aren’t there 4 more speakers with the HiFi? 6 vs 10? If so, where are the extra speakers?
Nice gabe! That’s going to be totally trick!
db’s back.
So quiet db. Where you at man?
visuals on db
I want to go over to the Dark Side, why no Diesel dammit!?!
Will this start/stop feature mess with aftermarked ECU upgrades?
Just seems like a good way to wear out a starter – plus lots of start/stop engine wear (low oil pressure, so forth) – just seems like a bad idea.
We east cost people do honk, especially at midwesterners
I read that too db, you can turn off the on/off start.
I also thought I read that the auto stop could be turned off??
Straight from the Motoringfile post… “What is more the Auto Start-Stop Function can be deactivated at any time by the driver at the press of a button.”
Can we plug a mouse into the USB and drive by mouse? 😉
is it true there will be timber panel exterior?
It it Brown-brown or like the Terra… ?whatever? leather in the 3 series??
I would TOTALLY drive a brown Clubman!!!
With the right brown color, the Clubman could be the first “Skid Mark” to LEAVE skid marks :-p
I want a diesel and take it to the dragon. 🙂
The MINI D engine, that’s NA and not a TDI, right?
Oh, and WHY is Diesel so expensive in the States?? It’s the cheapest option in Germany.
tell us how easy it would be to maintain a diesel?
Well executed web cast.
<i>I keep it on and on, it’s never quitting time and
Strictly hand held is the style I go
Never rock the mic with the panty hose
I strap on my ear goggles and I’m ready to go
…

There is a lot of stutter/buffering in Gabe’s stream. The other streams seem pretty good.
Only use Todd’s audio.
What is the difference with the standard, sport, and JCW suspension. The only thing I can tell is the sway bars…are the springs/struts different?
This was still really cool guys. Stick with it.
good night guys! I’m off to lunch 🙂
Thanks, the mini site does not point that out…it simply mentions the sway bars..
Thanks guys, g’night!
Is there going to be another full-blown “souped-up” JCW suspension or is this the ultimate one for this generation?
Cheers guys!!!
Guys don’t hassle it, keep it up and you will polish it as well as what you have been doing with the audio shows.
Still this is going to be a extreamly cool future feature.
haha can still hear you guys
Hey Gabe, you’re still broadcasting audio. Just FYI.
Video too.
Hey Gabe you are very funny, you seem to be enjoying yourself to the max.
Great show. I think your other 2 pals got MIA in cyberspace.
Gabe, you look super-tired!
Gabe u drunk?
he’s high on eye drops
Not that I’m aware of.
>he’s high on eye drops
Damn straight!
>Gabe, you look super-tired!
Yes – very. This was officially the strangest WRR show ever. Typically they’re much different.
Still, technical difficulties aside, the Live show is a GREAT idea and once things got semi-worked out, it was a good show.
